I can't imagine it will take any effort to convince bill to move the cw rig to a climate conditioned location (he actually welcomed the option).  

John will have vswr details ... only a dummy load is matched everywhere!  its worth confirming what it is in the digital/cw band.  it may be fine in the ssb portion.  we can benchmark our antennas while we let the atmosphere cool down before putting anything up.
